DECEMBER | THE STAR RESIDENCES HOLIDAY EDITION
Welcome to the December, and final, edition of The Star Residences blog for 2021
Construction Update
We finish off the year applauding the tremendous construction progress of The Star Residences. The apartments are therefore on track to complete and settle the development in early 2022. This means, if you haven’t already commenced your finance application, should you be obtaining finance to settle your apartment, you must do so immediately. Delaying this start means you run the risk of not settling on time, and the developer reserves its right to impose penalty interest on late settlements.
(See below for wonderful time lapse videos of the construction progress.)
Bank Valuation Inspections
We will announce the commencement of bank valuation inspections in January so please look out for this all-important email from Property Settlement Solutions. These inspections are for your banks’ valuers only; you will get your opportunity to inspect your apartment shortly thereafter and before settlement.
